Remembering Quotes (page 41)

People flock in, nevertheless, in search of answers to those questions only librarians are considered to be able to answer, such as "Is this the laundry?" "How do you spell surreptitious?" and, on a regular basis, "Do you have a book I remember reading once? It had a red cover and it turned out they were twins. Terry Prachett
To get the best out of life here ...Good grief. There's plenty of it about, so indulge. Give yourself some thing to remember. Fall in love. Fall out of love. Gamble. Get drunk. See how long you can stay awake. Go for long walks at night. Discover what you're afraid of doing, and then do it. Philip Pullman
If you limit the search for truth and forbid men anywhere, in any way, to seek knowledge, you paralyze the vital force of truth itself. In the best sense of the word, Jesus was a radical. His religion has been so long identified with conservation -- often with conservatism of the obstinate and unyielding sort -- that it is almost startling for us sometimes to remember that all of the conservatism of his own times was against him; that it was the young, free, restless, sanguine, progressive... Phillips Brooks
But remember that the Captain belongs to the most dangerous enemy to truth and freedom, the solid unmoving cattle of the majority Ray Bradbury
Mace leaned on his shovel and did a passable imitation. "'I think we'd rather not.' Very good, guv'nor. I'll remember that next time." "Divigation was nice. Where'd you get that one?"He swallowed a ****ing dictionary," Corporal Nettle said proudly. Ian Mcewan
Always give your best, never get discouraged, never be petty; always remember, others may hate you, but those who hate you don't win unless you hate them, and then you destroy yourself. Richard M. Nixon
It wasn't that long, and it certainly wasn't the kind of kiss you see in movies these days, but it was wonderful in its own way, and all I can remember about the moment is that when our lips touched, I knew the memory would last forever. Nicholas Sparks
You have to remember. . .that for this little boy whom you have met, his life is just as important to him, as your life is to you. No matter how insufficient or how shabby it may seem to some, it is the only one he has. Jonathan Kozol
The hardest thing to remember about our time, of course, is simply that it is a time- we all instinctively think of it as the Day of Judgment. Gilbert K. Chesterton
Timothy Findley quote: "I doubt we will ever be forgiven. All I hope is? they'll..."
I doubt we will ever be forgiven. All I hope is? they'll remember we were human beings Timothy Findley
Noel Coward quote: "A.E. Matthews ambled through This Was a Man like a charming..."
A.E. Matthews ambled through This Was a Man like a charming retriever who has buried a bone and can't quite remember where. Noel Coward
After many trials the God and his love end happily—tho' not all remember this conclusion—which is less memorable than the moment when everything was lost. Happy endings are all alike; disasters may be unique. John Crowley
Elie Wiesel quote: "I shall always remember that smile. From what world did it..."
I shall always remember that smile. From what world did it come from? Elie Wiesel
She touched the edge of its voluptuous field, knowing it would be lovely beyond dreams simply to submit to it; that not gravity's pull, laws of ballistics, feral ravening, promised more delight. She tested it, shivering: I am meant to remember. Each clue that comes is supposed to have its own clarity, its fine chances for permanence. But then she wondered if the gemlike "clues" were only some kind of compensation. To make up for her having lost the direct, epileptic Word, the cry that might... Thomas Pynchon

In English literature, I believe there is no exception from the time of the Anglo-Saxon poets to Shakespeare, and from Shakespeare to our own day. And this introduces us to the consideration of a general and remarkable fact, a fact that I do not remember to have seen in any books, but which is of very great philosophical importance: there is something... Lafcadio Hearn
